MTA Maryland Route 21
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Route 21 is a bus route operated by the Maryland Transit Administration in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It currently runs from the intersection of Cumberland and Carey Streets near the Penn-North Metro Subway Station to Fells Point, serving the communities of Sandtown-Winchester, Mt.

[edit] History
Route 21 was electrified in 1895 as a streetcar line along Preston and Caroline Streets. In 1938, the line was converted to a rubber tire bus service.
In 1957, the line was extended along Carey Street to the current loop at Cumberland and Carey Streets. Since then, the line has undergone no changes.
